Chapter 149: Crisis in the Shadows (Part 2)
In an instant, everyone's nerves tensed.
They stood still, quickly turning their perspectives to find the place where the sound had just come from.
However, after searching for a long time, they did not find where the sound just came out was.
And since they stopped, the voice has not been heard again.
Mi Le asked Chen Yuan in a very small voice: "Brother Yuan, what are we going to do now?"
Chen Yuan's mood at the moment was also a little uneasy, it wasn't that he was afraid, but he didn't know what that thing was, and he didn't know if it would attack him. Frowning and thinking about it, he lowered his voice and said, "Everyone slow down and continue to move forward, control their state, and try not to make a sound." That thing should be near us, and it will definitely come out. ”
Everyone nodded lightly and began to follow Chen Yuan slowly.
After a few steps, the voice never came again.
Puzzled, they continued on their way, and after a few more steps, they suddenly heard a painful wail coming from the other side of the woods. This sudden scream immediately plunged the people of the three teams into deeper fear. Chen Yuan's brows tightened, he raised his head and glanced at the location where the sound came from, that direction should be the search range of the second team.
Just as he was thinking about it, the sound of rustling suddenly sounded again. Chen Yuan quickly turned his head, only to see a yellow and white afterimage left in the air, and the thing disappeared between the trees again.
"I, I, I, I seem to see ......"
"What do you see?"
"The four-legged one, I don't see it too clearly, anyway, it should be an animal anyway. ”
"Could it be that the animals in this forest were bitten by zombies and then infected with terrifying things?"
Several people whispered in the ranks.
Chen Yuan clenched the iron rod in his hand, and his thoughts flickered.
At the same time as the danger happened on the second team's side just now, they also saw that guy on their side. This shows that they are now facing more than one enemy.
Chen Yuan exhaled slowly, "Everyone calm down, what we are facing now should be more than just one thing." And they're fast, obviously different from ordinary zombies. Be careful!"
"Understood. ”
Looking around, the guy was still hiding in the shadows among some bushes. The more he thought about it, the more terrifying he felt, Chen Yuan rubbed the corners of his eyes and whispered, "Let's go, let's slow down, we will definitely be able to lure that guy out." ”
After walking a few steps slowly, there was still no response at first, so Chen Yuan motioned to everyone not to stop and continue walking. And then, at that moment, the thing moved. With a rapid rustling sound, the yellow and white figure rushed out of the branches and leaves in vain.
Accidents happen so quickly, even though everyone's nerves are tense. But at this moment, their reaction was still too slow in front of that deadly figure.
When Chen Yuan turned his head, the thing had already pounced on the shoulder of the last team member. With a scream of surprise, the thing opened its mouth full of sharp teeth and bit down on the team's neck.
"Ahhh
The team member instinctively reached out to grab the damn creature as he screamed, but as soon as he touched its fur, it jumped to the side, tearing a piece of bright red flesh off of it, and then quickly submerged in the bushes, the whole process took no more than three seconds.
Before the other team members standing next to him could respond, he knelt on the ground in pain with his neck clutched. Chen Yuan rushed along the bushes, but the guy was gone.
"......"
Whispering a curse, he looked around, completely unaware of where the guy was hiding.
Blindly searching for it didn't solve the problem, so he had to go back to the team first.
The member of the team who had been bitten in the neck turned pale, and the shocking wound had long since become a bloody blur, and if you looked closely, you could see that there was no whole piece of flesh from the right side of his chin to the base of his neck.
The pain seemed to have paralyzed his nerves, and he fell to the ground convulsing.
"Captain, I don't want to die, I don't want to die......"
He kept repeating the phrase, his tone becoming more and more disorganized.
The other team members surrounded him with complicated expressions.
In the face of terrible danger, feelings can always seem fragile.
At this moment, put aside Chen Yuan, Mi Le and Yang Wanli. The other team members, who had been with him for a long time, did not show the expression of wanting to save him, and they did not even have emotions such as sadness. What they think about in their hearts seems to be more the fear of being dominated by the unknown.
If you are bitten, you will not be saved, this is something that everyone knows by heart.
One of the team members said to him: "It's good to leave this world, at least you don't have to live in torment anymore." ”
Another member of the team said: "Anyway, if you have been bitten, you should not struggle, this is also a relief." ”
said such high-sounding words on his lips, but what he thought in his heart was that it was fortunately not me who was bitten.
This is a reality that is more terrible than danger.
In the end, they still need to dispose of this wounded, and the reason why they say this kind of thing is probably because they want to embody themselves a little more noble.
"Don't, don't leave me, please, save me, save me......"
The heavy blood loss made the wounded's breath weaker and weaker, and he reached out and grabbed the leg of one of the team's trousers, who immediately took two steps back and shook off his hand. For fear that the virus would be transmitted to him through such a touch.
Finally, someone asked, "Brother Yuan, what should we do?"
The question naturally asks how to deal with this wounded, they need a hands-on person.
Chen Yuan didn't have much feeling about their reaction, everyone was in danger under the end of the world, and most people only had themselves in their hearts, so he could understand such thoughts.
Looking at the wounded man who was still twitching on the ground, Chen Yuan lit a cigarette and squatted next to him, "Do you want one?"
The wounded man just shook his head, "Help me...... Captain...... Help me......"
"You know, if you get bitten, you're not saved. ”
Chen Yuan blew out a cloud of smoke and said it very directly.
The snot, tears, and blood in his mouth were all mixed together, and the wounded man was still in pain, "I don't want to die...... Captain...... I really...... Don't want to die ......"
His eyes grew more and more desperate, and after a while, he was completely dead.
"All the way, okay bro. ”
Chen Yuan put the remaining half of the cigarette next to him and shot him directly in the head before he turned into a zombie.
The hearts of the crowd became very heavy.
Chen Yuan looked up at the sky and said calmly: "This time I'll go last, Brother Wan, you take Mi Le to the front, let's go back and see if that thing dares to come out." ”
Regrouped, the crowd moved slowly forward with fear and uneasiness.
After walking for more than 20 meters, the sound of rustling finally sounded. But the guy didn't rush to make a move, it seemed to be waiting for a more opportune moment.
Everyone knew that the guy was already following behind, and their mood suddenly became more nervous. Although they were more prepared this time, they were inevitably very worried.
Chen Yuan kept looking around, normally speaking, he was definitely not that guy's target. So he just needs to guard the player in front of him, so that guy will definitely be blown up by him.
In the blink of an eye, after walking more than thirty meters, the thing finally started. The sound of squirming suddenly became louder, and a yellow-white figure rushed out of the bushes in an instant. Aiming at the team member in front of Chen Yuan, it bounced up violently and pounced straight over.
Sure enough, everything was as Chen Yuan thought, and this time he had enough time.
Seeing that the guy was getting closer and closer to the team, Chen Yuan waved the iron rod in his hand vigorously, and while it was still flying, he smashed its head with a stick.
The team member who picked up a life was stunned in place, still looking frightened.
Chen Yuan lowered his head and carefully looked at the yellow and white fluffy animals under his feet, with mixed feelings.
It's really a little flower......
It seemed to be a circle or two larger, and its teeth and claws had become sharper.
In addition to the head being blown out by Chen Yuan, you can also see that there is a conspicuous wound on its left buttocks. Now it seems that it was obviously infected after being bitten by a zombie.
But why do these strange changes occur after the cat is bitten by zombies? And unlike ordinary zombies, it also knows to wait for an opportunity to shoot again, and it also knows how to hide, how can this happen?
A lot of questions pop up in my head, but I can't think of any answers.
But one thing is good news, at least they still won't attack themselves.
"I didn't expect it to be a cat. ”
"So the cat was bitten by a zombie and then ran into the shelter and bit the guard?"
"Captain, what do we do now?"
Chen Yuan thought for a moment and motioned for everyone to return to the shelter first.
After arriving at the small conference room, it didn't take long for Luo Xiu and Nie Junlong to arrive one after another.
Both of them had ugly faces.
Luo Xiu was the first to speak, "There is indeed an unknown danger near the shelter, it seems to be a zombie-like animal, we had an encounter just now, and we didn't see what it was. ”
Ren Jinghua's face was solemn, "Is anyone injured?"
"Three people died. ”
Ren Jinghua sighed heavily, "Captain Nie, what about you over there?"
"Two people died. ”
"Where's Captain Chen?"
"We sacrificed one man. ”
Ren Jinghua crossed his hands against his chin, "I didn't expect us to lose so many people." He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Nothing else has been discovered?"
Nie Junlong shook his head, "I only know that the other party's speed is very fast, I hit it, but it ran away." ”
Another sigh, followed by silence.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Chen Yuan said calmly, "I killed a cat that was bitten by zombies." ”
